No. 23 Texas A&M vs. No. 10 LSU: How to Watch, Odds, Injuries, and More

The Texas A&M Aggies prepare to hit the road for the first time this season and travel to Baton Rouge in hopes of avoiding a second straight loss.

While last season's trip to Baton Rouge was a blowout in favor of the Aggies, resulting in the firing of the last regime for the LSU Tigers, the pressure is on for the two teams as the loser will have their second loss of the season just four games in.

Here is how to watch the top-25 showdown in Baton Rouge.

Last Season: The Aggies would experience one of the best seasons in school history, including a historic 11-0 start, but they would drop the season finale to their bitter rivals, the Texas Longhorns, and despite making the College Football Playoffs for the first time in school history, would be eliminated in the first round. Despite a 4-0 start, the Tigers would fall to 5-3 after an embarrassing home loss to the Texas A&M Aggies, which led the program to opt for a head coaching change, and would finish 2-3 the rest of the way for a 7-6 record.
Series History: The Tigers hold a 32-25 all-time series lead over the Aggies, and the two teams have tied three times.

What to Know About the Tigers

The Tigers are coming off an emotionally draining loss to the Ole Miss Rebels that resulted in the first misstep of the Kiffin tenure in Baton Rouge. Despite the thrilling game, they now look to defend their home stadium and keep the season alive.

Quarterback Sam Leavitt has been the point of emphasis, struggling through the last two games of the season. However, he is flanked by an elite defense that has been stout, despite a struggling first half in week three.
